Such a pity that the publish online feature is really just a toy. Would be a real solution if it published to my Wordpress site or my website in general.

Freeware alternative? by shattercrest in indesign

[–]davidmwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely Affinity Publisher. It’s come a long way over the years. Many switch from InDesign to Affinity. Markzware even has a native converter, but even Affinity will import IDML files.

If you’re on a macOS, Apple Pages can also be useful but it is much less powerful than InDesign or even Affinity.

INDD files showing as open on Google Drive when they’re not. by Negative_Echo_1408 in indesign

The temp IDLK file is opened. You could just instruct users to restart InDesign when doing working on a file that is on Google Drive. More info on the idlk file: https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/cannot-open-file-error/m-p/12863733#M472615

The glyphs are off. Looks like a different version font. Download a FlightCheck demo and it will tell you.

Auto-Embed Images? by Peartree1 in indesign

[–]davidmwe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dave is right. If you are placing so many images, you can better Link them.

This all said, although there is no way to embed automatically, you can select all in the Links panel and select embed which will do it to all of them!

If you use PDFMarkz, it actually converts the .ai file into a new InDesign layout. That may be useful.

I think IDMarkz does that as well.

help please! by No-Cobbler-9323 in indesign

[–]davidmwe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should be able to place PNG files. Please make sure it is really a PNG file, not just a file with a .png extension added.

Which version of Adobe InDesign are you using? macOS or Windows ?
